Acknowledgments The expeditions conducted for recovering this giant titanosaur were only possible thanks to the help of many people, including our fellow paleontologists who participated in the study of this species (Leonardo Salgado, Alejandro Otero, and Ignacio Cerda). Numerous volunteers, students, and technicians also participated in this process. Among them, Pablo Puerta was the first one who visited the locality and was a key teammember in this project. The family Mayo showed us the dinosaur bone found by Aurelio Hernandez and hosted us at their ranch during the successive expeditions we conducted to recover the fossils.
